In-DB Macro Input and Output tools hidden Question attribute

I may have found a bug in the In-DB Macro Input and Macro Output tools.  When they are used during macro development attempting to Create Debug brings up this message.

It appears that the tool itself inserts a hidden Question attribute into the XML which can also be seen in Workflow Configuration

There is a simple workaround to simply remove the tools before debugging but just wanted to bring it to attention.

 

Thanks,

Dan

@collin_pace  On my main two Alteryx customers (I'm a consultant), in-db is the default developers have to use, in-memory is only used when they have no choice. Performance is key, but that goes way further than that, like avoiding network traffic, etc..That's why I redacted several dozens of ideas about that for years (and made my coworkers vote on it^^)  and loudly keep asking Alteryx for in-db improvements. ;). By the way, just voted for your idea.

Best regards,
Simon
